I was a full-time, qualified, zookeeper for ten years. I moved abroad in 2019 to work in wildlife rescue and the illegal wildlife trade, and I've made my passion and love for animals my profession- now I'm back in the UK and happy to care for your pets! I have qualifications in Animal Management and have also completed my DMZAA (diploma in the management of zoo animals and aquaria), as well as courses in wildlife rehabilitation. I'm currently working part-time for a dog and cat rescue. I have a lot of experience with exotics, however I love pet sitting in my spare time! I'm trained and experienced giving medications, including injections, and can assist with medical treatments if required; and I'm comfortable dealing with pets with behavioural issues (I am very used to grumpy animals!). I am happy to help look after your cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, reptiles, birds, fish, tarantulas..... You name it, it's fine by me. I can offer occasional dog walking or dog sitting on my days off, however please double check my calendar or drop me a message incase I am working. I am available for pet sitting in the evenings or overnight stays and house sitting, although I could do two visits on my days off. Happy to feed, clean, groom, and spend time with your pet! Please don't hesitate to contact me for a chat to find out more. I am fully vaccinated for just about everything under the sun. (P.S. I'm also happy to offer advice for injured/ orphaned wildlife if you need it.) :-)
